Philanthropy as an Essential Partner in Tackling Climate Adaptation

Speakers: Francesca Vietor, Program Director, Environment, Public Policy and Civic Engagement, The San Francisco Foundation; Nicola Hedge, Director, Climate Initiative, The San Diego Foundation; John Nordgren, Senior Program Officer, Kresge Foundation; Nadine Peterson, Deputy Executive Officer, California State Coastal Conservancy; MODERATOR: Allison Brooks, Director, Bay Area Joint Policy Committee

Learn how foundations are working with partners to foster innovation, identify best practices and help bring promising interventions to the appropriate scale of impact, and convening diverse stakeholders to address gaps in knowledge and action, particularly as they relate to disadvantaged communities. The panel’s five foundation representatives will describe their respective foundation’s programmatic approach to climate adaptation, how they define the problem, who they invest in and work with, how they measure success, the timeline they are working under, and where they see the biggest leverage points to bring efforts to the needed scale.

Building Regional Collaboratives to Accelerate Adaptation Success

Speakers: Larry Greene, Air Pollution Control Officer, Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District; Cody Hooven, Senior Environmental Specialist, Environmental and Land Use Management, Port of San Diego; Krista Kline, Managing Director, Los Angeles Regional Collaborative for Climate Action & Sustainability; Bruce Riordan, Climate Strategist, Bay Area Joint Policy Council; Michael McCormick, Senior Planner, Governor’s Office of Planning and Research; MODERATOR: Jonathan Parfrey, Executive Director, Climate Resolve

Addressing climate change at the regional level is one way to minimize risk and maximize resilience opportunities. For an effective regional response, all interested stakeholders must work more closely together than ever before. However, there are significant barriers to coordinating across regions. One emerging approach is found in the formation of “regional adaptation collaboratives.” This session discusses the development, implementation, and lessons learned from the Alliance of Regional Collaboratives for Climate Adaptation (ARCCA), an organization consisting of four regional adaptation collaboratives in San Diego, Los Angeles, the Bay Area and Sacramento. This session discusses (1) a framework for forming a regional adaptation network, (2) guidance for structuring a regional collaborative, and (3) insights into effective mechanisms for engaging stakeholders in adoption of these new collaborative relationships.

Building Community Resilience into Climate Change through Art: Stories from the Artists

Speakers: Kira Carrillo Corser, Team Leader, Artist and Education, Seachanges.org; Alison Joe, AICP, Commissioner, Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission; Mallorie Marsh, Manager, School and Teacher Programs, Crocker Art Museum; Sabrina McCormick, Associate Professor, George Washington University: MODERATOR: Amber Pairis, Ph.D, Senior Environmental Scientist, California Department of Fish and Wildlife

Artists play a key role in communicating ideas to their local communities and beyond. Art in its varied forms can be used to educate and train, promote a sense of community, celebrate and support individuals, promote ideas and initiatives, and can play a pivotal role in supporting social change. Climate change offers a unique and important opportunity to bring art and science together to reach a wide array of people on a subject where time is of the essence. Art can touch people emotionally not just academically and create an experience that translates climate change research into something meaningful on a personal level. This session is a storytelling hour where California-based artists and those involved with the arts discuss their experiences on how art can translate climate science into something that is accessible and creates an interest and curiosity among people to become more engaged on the topic.

How Local Food System Planning Can Create More Resilient Communities

Speakers: Gail Feenstra, Deputy Director, Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education Program, UC Davis; Timothy Griffin, Alliance Program Manager, Ag Innovations Network; Eric Holt-Giménez, Ph.D., Executive Director, Food First, Institute for Food and Development Policy; Ricardo Salvador, Ph.D., Director and Senior Scientist, Union of Concerned Scientists; MODERATOR: Sigrid Wright, Assistant Director, Community Environmental Council

In parts of California, food banks are reporting a 75% drop in donated fruits and vegetables due to the drought – confirming that our most vulnerable populations are on the front lines of climate change. We’ll look at how some communities are engaging emergency food providers – as well as churches, farmers, NGOs, schools, political officials and local governments – in large-scale efforts to design healthier, more vibrant food systems that build community resilience. Many early-adopter cities and counties have completed and are implementing “food action plans” or “food system assessments,” providing an emerging body of case studies and tools. We explore examples from major urban areas (Oakland and Los Angeles) and urban/rural areas (Sonoma, Fresno and San Luis Obispo). We also explore how some Food Policy Councils are being coordinated out of mayor’s offices, planning departments or public health departments, and how their work can support climate action plans or other planning efforts.

California’s vast transportation network of highways, local streets, transit systems, bicycle/walking paths, seaports and airports play a vital role in the movement of people and freight. This panel discussion helps frame the issues that transportation providers in California should address in order to adapt to our changing climate. Panelists provide an overview of potential impacts to our transportation system and the innovative steps underway to plan for those impacts.
